Chipper and .400

Tue, 13 May 2008 02:38:06 +0000

Among the last players to seriously flirt with .400 is George Brett who hit .390 in 1980. Brett was a career .305 hitter (compare to Jones’ .309) whose next highest average season was .333 in 1976. Tony Gwynn also flirted with .400 in 1994 ... it was an outlier of a season for both Brett and Gwynn, but you can't count out Jones just because he's a career .309 hitter.
